'You'll Find Out Soon,' Is Trump Still Unclear On Nuclear Testing, Or Is He Hiding Something?
US President Donald Trump has reignited global nuclear tensions by ordering a resumption of America’s nuclear weapons testing program, marking the end of a 33-year hiatus. The move, announced just before his crucial meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea, signals a new, more aggressive phase in U.S. defense policy. Analysts warn the decision could unsettle the delicate balance of global deterrence, especially as it coincides with rising friction between Washington, Moscow, and Beijing.
On Truth Social, Trump justified his order by warning that China, though currently far behind the U.S. and Russia in nuclear capability, could match America’s arsenal within five years. His remark has triggered alarm across global capitals, with many interpreting it as a challenge aimed at both China and Russia. As the world braces for potential fallout, Trump’s bold gamble appears designed to reassert U.S. dominance—but it risks opening a dangerous new front in the twenty-first century’s nuclear rivalry.
